Ethyl butyrate, identified by the CAS number 105-54-4, is an ester formed from the reaction of butyric acid with ethanol. It is notable for its sweet, fruity smell reminiscent of pineapples or fresh oranges, making it extensively used as a flavoring agent in the food industry. Beyond its commercial applications, ethyl butyrate serves as an important compound in research, particularly in the fields of organic chemistry and sensory science. This ester is often utilized in studies focusing on esterification reactions, a fundamental type of chemical reaction in organic synthesis. The synthesis of ethyl butyrate provides a practical example of how carboxylic acids and alcohols combine to form esters, releasing water in the process, which is a key concept in educational settings for demonstrating organic reaction mechanisms. In research centered on flavor chemistry, ethyl butyrate is a model compound used to investigate the behavior of esters in different matrices and their stability under various storage and processing conditions. This research is crucial for developing new food products and improving existing ones. Additionally, ethyl butyrate is used in analytical chemistry as a standard for calibrating instruments that measure volatile compounds, particularly in studies related to food aroma and quality control.
